Breaking News film style

2022-02-27 08:02
"Dark War", "Gun Fire", and "PTU" are all films involving guns and gangsters, but the sound of gunfire is rarely heard, and the character's psychology is always reflected by the scheduling of the scene and the actions of the characters, and the obvious dark blue tone is used. Image traces. But Breaking News is not. "Breaking News" goes against the tradition of Hong Kong action films, does not stand out with well-designed movements, and deviates from the documentary road. It is like a rough-cut news documentary, making the rhythm of the event itself the biggest gimmick.
The "long shot" repeatedly hyped by the media is the portrayal of this style. The realistic long shot at the beginning of the film is almost boring at first glance, but the scene is created to be extremely real. During the confrontation between the buildings, the grainy and pure natural light pictures are more like news documentaries. Johnnie To is a person who is good at self-breakthrough, and is also good at reflecting this kind of breakthrough in actors and films. "Breaking News" once again subverted his previous style, giving people a fresh feeling.

    The sense of rhythm is very strong, the long shots are handsome, the collision of multiple characters is still very exciting, and there are many episodes of "PTU" and "Very Sudden". The film uses God's vision to look at the actions of both the police and gangsters very calmly and objectively. The police's manipulation of the media and the loyalty of the gangsters. While the word "hero" is gradually blurred, it also strengthens the irony of the whole show. The back of the color also confirms the close relationship between the two. Of course, if you look at the narrative level, the movie is really good. It has the taste of the galaxy. You can still see that To Qifeng is still pursuing and experimenting in many aspects, but I think the biggest problem with the film is the style and technology. The excessive rambunctiousness of the level obviously makes them ignore the importance of the text, so it is a pity for such a subject, not to mention the courage and genius possessed by this group of people, I believe that the seriousness will not stop at the current effect. Of course, we also know that the image of the Galaxy is often insufficient in text, so the narrative supplements the number. It can satisfy the script and let To Qifeng reduce his dazzling techniques. It is still the two guardians of the Galaxy, You Naihai and Wei Jiahui.
